    I have 2 layers of damp pro. Sound deadening wasn't stopping this. I got it welded yesterday, we'll see how it holds up when I put the subs back in.

    I know why he did it. Just seems like taking the easy way out for the designer, but in turn the builder has to cut 4 extra pieces of wood. Then you have to cut two 45's in each piece of wood, with no real benefit.

    Do you have access to a TL?

    He seems to think he's better than Joe. Not the first time he's put him down. Also didn't you, 412, put 45's in the sealed section of a 4th order design.

    Go to the outside unit and in the middle of the model number there will be a 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, or 60. Divide 12 by that number and that'll be your tonnage. It's 102 here and mine is staying at 72 degrees and cycling properly. That 20 degree rule of thumb is just like the sq in of port per cube rule of thumb. If the system is sized right, the ductwork is put together properly, the duct is properly routed and sized, etc that rule of thumb can be thrown out the window.

    Yeah it's one thing after another. Console, mirrors, dash bezel, now my roof. It's apart of it though. Are you allowed to run with your head liner out?

    I have 2 layers of damp pro on my roof. Spray foam in the gaps. But my roof hasn't been holding up to well to the current setup. One of the cracks is now up to 8" long. 2 layers is the max allowed, right?

    Yeah I was gonna ask him at the next show, but I'll just have to go another route

    Thanks alpine

    Gonna weld it and let Line-X bed line it as long as its allowed in Meca mod 5.

    Are there any rules dealing with bed liner on the roof of a vehicle? Class is mod 5.

    Well my roof finally gave up on me. I have three cracks ranging from 1" to 6". Only reason I bothered to look is because my score at a recent show was a full dB lower than normal and I demoed with the door open a few times. During my park and pound run my roof was looking really weak. What have you guys used to fix the cracks in the roof? Roof sealant didn't hold up to well last time. Probably gonna see if one of my grandads friends can get the welder ahold of it.

    I trust myself and especially trust what Alpine and Ray say. There's more than a handful who have tested the 45's. I wouldn't use them.

    Mine got to smelling off a AQ 2200d each after 2 or 3 songs. Never failed but always got warm/smelly after a few songs. I'd say 3000 would be the limit I'd want to throw to them.

    Hooking up your rcas to your amp before the ground wire. Always unhook rcas first and hook them back up last.

    And to piggy back off n8, the more room you have between the end of the port and back wall the better. Both for spl and quality of sound, in my experience.

    Depth of box is 28 Depth of port is 30 The port would have to bend. Typo? I'm on on mobile and the calc is small so I may have misread.

    I'd get some wire loom. Home depot, Lowes, etc will have it.
  21. memphisBred
    Can you provide an exact pic of what your talking about?
  22. memphisBred
    Wire loom?

    I have two all threads front to back and 1 dowel side to port. Who chose 1" dowels? Was it a money thing/customer thing? On those long side to side pieces I would have used all thread, and I'd never use smaller than 1.5" dowels, unless the distance is extremely short.

    I have 3 braces in my entire box. That's for 4 N2'S and two 3500.1's and is holding up fine at 155 dB. I'd rather add layers of wood than start throwing in too many braces. You shouldn't need but 2, maybe 3 braces in that box(2 across, 1 top to bottom) if the box is designed/built right. Looks like the customer wanted a lot of bracing anyways. Not sure why.

    Better than 150 in an attic. I'm with Hugh, tough it out. Put a floor fan in their if it's that bad.
